Looks like they're playing Belfast as well, on 23rd November in The Deer's Head.

Seems like its cancelled

The promoter has a reputation of not doing any promo then cancelling shows and falling out with venues so I am not surprised.

Doing gigs the last few years believe he put on Venom Inc mainly does cover bands and is doing Gutalax next but its a common occurrence that his shows are cancelled.

I see on the NW fb page that both Irish dates are gone from the tour. They're playing Sheffield and Nottingham those nights instead.

I found the Guta;ax dates for the start of February though :-) Fingers crossed they pan out ok.

It's the same guy that put on the last few EHG shows here did the Conflict ones and a lot of the punk bands. If anything I would say these shows were cancelled due to low tickets sales seemed to be little to no interest in them.

Bassist posted this

no all the Ireland dates have been moved. The logistics just didnt work out unfortunately.

Logistics not working out usually means shows not selling.

Looks like it was live free tour booking who were doing the Irish dates. That's Johnny McKees company. He's the Belfast lad who got blacklisted by loads of venues after he got put on the sex offender register and went off the rails uploading Facebook live videos going off on everyone who ever wronged him. There's another lad involved aswell so these could be his shows.

They haven't the best track record in pulling off the shows they've booked.

Shame as this looked to be a cool tour, would love to have made it up for the Dublin date.

I did not want to say it so thanks for bringing it to light

He should not be doing gigs at all and should feck off away from the metal scene.

There is another Johnny McKee from Belfast who is a punk and a legend. Just for note.
